in store performance for Bloc Party

Good news if you're living in Manchester and you're excited about the release of Bloc Party's new album 'A Weekend in the City'.

The band will be doing an in store performance at the Manchester Virgin Megastore on the 14th of February, just prior to their sell out gig at the Academy.

There will also be playbacks around the country in the week before the album's release. We're not completely sure what that means at eGigs. But we've had an educated guess and we're assuming that you'll be able to listen to the album a few days before it's released. The club nights are as follows:

January 31
Popscene @ Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff

February 01
Propaganda @ Blush, Cheltenham
MFI @ The Gloucester, Brighton

February 02
Ramshackle @ Academy, Birmingham
Ramshackle @ Academy, Bristol
